Chris Cagle Will Return for a CD, Live Performance and DVD in 2019

It's been three years since Chris Cagle announced his retirement from country music in 2015, but according to a new statement from the singer, Cagle has plans to return for a special live one-off in 2019. The former country star, whose fourth single, "I Breathe in, I Breathe Out," became his first chart-topper in 2002, will headline the Guthrie's River Ruckus Festival in July of next year.

But wait -- there's more. Not only will Cagle film his festival performance for a live DVD so that even fans who miss Guthrie's River Ruckus will be able to catch the action, but the singer says his set will include a first taste of new music set for inclusion on a forthcoming new CD.

"July 27, 2019, River Ruckus! I'm coming back for 1 show!" Cagle stated on Twitter when he announced the new show. "It's gonna be a blast! Humbled and excited to get to headline bringing new music and shooting live DVD!" In a separate tweet, Cagle added that "It is real, it's gonna happen! New CD and LIVE DVD plus a meet and greet!"

Guthrie's River Ruckus Festival's website states that Cagle will be doing "more Meet & Greets than anyone we've ever heard of," adding that fans can secure meet and greet passes when they purchase the Chris Cagle album/DVD package with their tickets to the festival. The festival enters its 11th year in 2019, and will take place in west-central Iowa on July 26 and July 27.
